Donald Trump Takes on Avenatti

President Trump delivered a deadly series of tweets against Stormy Daniels and her lawyer Michael Avenatti. Fox News reports:

President Trump ratcheted up his legal and personal battle with Stormy Daniels on Tuesday, calling her “Horseface” and threatening to “go after” her and lawyer Michael Avenatti after a federal judge tossed their defamation lawsuit.

“’Federal Judge throws out Stormy Danials [sic] lawsuit versus Trump. Trump is entitled to full legal fees.’ @FoxNews Great, now I can go after Horseface and her 3rd rate lawyer in the Great State of Texas. She will confirm the letter she signed! She knows nothing about me, a total con!” Trump tweeted on Tuesday.

Daniels, the adult film star whose real name is Stephanie Clifford and who says she had an affair with Trump, had sued the president in April over a tweet in which he denied her claims of being threatened by a man in a Las Vegas parking lot in 2011.

A federal judge in Los Angeles on Monday threw out the defamation lawsuit and ordered Daniels to pay the president’s legal fees. Trump’s reference to Texas apparently stems from the judge citing a Texas law in dismissing the case brought by Daniels, a Texas resident. His mention of a “letter” may be the original statement Daniels wrote and signed in January denying an affair, before she backtracked.

Will the defamation suit be a death blow for Democrats?
